The Games We Play by S.N. Kastle (R)
Fandom: X-FILES
Pairing: Mulder/Scully UST
Author on LJ: Unknown
Author Website: On Gossamer
Why this must be read:
MotelFic is like the crack of X-Files fandom. It usually isn't very satisfying, but somehow you always want more. Occasionally, though, there comes a story that you remember. This is one of those. It has great use of detail, great characterization, and a little bit of romance without going over the top.
She shouldn't have been surprised that the water was cold.
She was in a shitty shower in a shitty motel in some God-forsaken town someplace in the Midwest. Ohio? No. That wasn't right.
It was one of those long days where the only clue as to her final resting place was the area code on the 1970-circa phone bolted to the nightstand. She strained her memory. 219. Where was 219?
